It’s like you send someone from the extremely hot Sahara in Africa to fight in extremely cold Siberia against Siberians who’ve lived there all their lives. How do you think that will work out?
With the fluctuating temperatures in the Ukraine since the invasion, I can easily see some soldiers getting frostbite. Without good NCOs to insure the soldiers keep their feet dry, change socks (if they have extra), dry out their boots; then they will get frostbitten feet along with immersion foot, trenchfoot, and similar maladies.
How great the “frost bite” casualties are, I’ll not speculate on, but there will be some and that is an additional strain on what has appeared to be an inefficient logistical system.
Doesn’t look like much rain coming either, according to the Weather Channel. So it’s not wet right now.
I call BS. Weather report looks like coldest night is 32 degrees F or 0 Degrees C only once the next 5 days?? I bet some folks are “confusing” Fahrenheit and Celsius. Quality education system huh???
THIS!
I thought the Russian troops outside Kiev were surrounded. š
Putin expected Ukraine to surrender on the first day ?
The only places the Russians conquered were Liquor Stores ?
The important question is “how many...?
The answer is important, a significant number would
indicate that officers and senior NCOs are not up to
their jobs.
The same thing happened in the Winter War against Finland. You’d think Russia would have learned from that.
“Ironic if true, since that is what happened to both Napoleonās French army and the Nazis when they invaded Russia.”
And it happened to the Russians in the Winter War against Finland.
Defecated?
That’s shorts and t-shirts weather in Minneapolis.
The Russian soldiers arenāt based in Miami, FFS! And most of Russia is north of Kiev in the first place. These āreportersā are so sure of their readersā stupidity that they arenāt even trying any more.
